Waveplace Tutorials

Waveplace has released the beta version of the Squeaky Tales Course, a series of thirty lessons that teach mentors and children how to create digital storybooks using Squeak Etoys. These are the lessons we're using in Haiti, Florida, and Nicaragua, based upon our experiences during our first pilot in St John.

Below you find a sampling of the thirty screencasts in the course. There will also be a textbook and DVD series in the production courseware this fall.

If you wish to see all thirty lessons and become a beta tester, please sign up for an account on the courseware page, or you can view our old videos.
